GENERAL INFORMATION
- Although silver dust is an old-fashioned plant that has been around garden centers for decades, the drought tolerance and pest-free nature of this plant make it worth revisiting for busy gardeners who want to add dazzle without fuss to their landscapes.
- Silver dust is not marketed as a blooming plant, and while not all plants will produce yellow fuzzy flowers, they increase the beauty of mature plants.
SOIL REQUIREMENT
- It adapts to a variety of soils, but good drainage is key for healthy plants.

FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- They are light feeders, and only need supplemental fertilizers in areas with very poor soil.
- In this case, it's better to feed and improve the soil at the same time by adding organic matter like well-rotted manure or leaf mold.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- It needs full sun to stay compact and keep its fabulous foliage color.
- Plants growing in shade are leggy and produce fewer of the hairs that give them their silvery color.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- One inch of water per week is enough to keep silver dust growing strong.
- It does not like soggy conditions.
